I’ve returned to BikeExchange a more mature rider
Cyclingnews, Daniel Benson, 18 January 2021

After four years away Michael Matthews has returned to Team BikeExchange and is convinced that he’s a more mature team leader and well-rounded rider than the one that left at the end of 2016. The Australian spent the last four campaigns at Sunweb, and although those seasons were littered with wins and even a Tour de France green jersey, the 30-year-old knew that in order to keep challenging for top honours he needed to leave.

Michael Matthews wist in 2019 enkele overwinningen te boeken in het tenue van Team Sunweb, maar hij kende ook een moeilijk seizoen. “Ik nam het wielrennen veel te serieus, deed dingen zonder erbij na te denken. Ik hoop volgend jaar weer plezier te hebben op de fiets”, zo vertelt een openhartige Matthews in gesprek met WielerFlits.

“I’m on the bike,” said the message from Michael Matthews, “but you can call – just riding easy.” We’d been aiming to speak for a few days and eventually he explained his 7th place in Milan-Sanremo… while he was pushing 350 watts on a training ride.

Victorious Matthews tangles with Dengenkolb, makes significant gains in green jersey competition

On a normal day taking the victory and clocking up 50 points and moving significantly closer to the long-running leader of the points competition would have been the main story, but Michael Matthews’ 16th stage in this year’s Tour de France contained an additional twist.
I was almost giving up on this race

t’s been a bumpy road to Tour de France glory for Michael Matthews. A long-awaited debut in 2014 was thwarted by a crash in training just days before the start, and last year’s campaign was derailed by a crash on stage 3 that left the Canberran with four broken ribs.
Looking forward to Flèche Wallonne

In part one of our exclusive interview with Michael Matthews he explained his fifth place in the Amstel Gold Race on Sunday. This was meant to be his last Classics appearance for the season but he’s now ready to race again in la Flèche Wallonne on Wednesday and possibly even Liège-Bastogne-Liège next Sunday.

Michael Matthews is disinclined to define his style ahead of 2016, a season in which a set of dynamic goals may present another leadership headache between he and statesman teammate Simon Gerrans.

A Chat With Michael Matthews

Amongst all the recent doom and gloom in cycling I thought we'd focus today on young man with a bright future ahead. I've kept a keen eye on Michael Matthews ever since the 2007 Tour of Bright when a bunch of us A-graders were riding full-gas up Mt Hotham and he passed us like we were standing still. We all thought it was an attack from within A-Grade until we all looked at each other and realised he was wearing a B-Grade number. Michael went on to winning B-Grade which was just the start of what will be a tremendously successful career. Here's what Michael had to say about his interests, his nickname, and his riding.

Cuando a principios de año hablábamos sobre Michael Matthews (1990, Australia), avisábamos de que no tardaría en destacar y, probablemente, ya en el Tour Down Under brillaría "por primera vez a la altura de los mejores". No nos equivocamos. Pero lo cierto es que la apuesta era sobre seguro.
